====== Bug Fixes: Update breaks Firefox ======


This problem might be temporary but updating the advanced desktop breaks the shortcuts to FireFox. From the forums this might be a change of name to iceweasel? Don't reinstall the system :-\ The solution (provided by mrmot in the forums):

  Edit... shortcut by Wilden from the forums: To fix it go into console and type 
  sudo apt-get install eeepc-updatepack-20071126

1.) Open the synaptic package manager from Launch:Applications:System

2.) Within Synaptic, run Edit:Fix Broken Packages twice.

After each of these, it would be advisable to ensure Synaptic is closed, and then run:

  sudo apt-get update

in the console to update the package list. 

This solves an annoying synaptic error [[howto:unable_to_tparse]]

3.) Now search in synaptic for SCIM and install the update that asus has provided to solve this problem "eeepc-updatepack-20071126" -- "Update pack for eeePC - fixes SCIM.
This update pack fixes SCIM for applications which were provided to ASUS
as binaries. This includes Firefox, Thunderbird, Adobe Acrobat."

Done.
